Hyundai Getz reviews
Total 8 Hyundai Getz owner reviews
Pros: Easy to park in tight spaces (which is why I bought it). Good acceleration to about 70 km/h for such a small engine. Short bonnet, which doesn't get in the way. Small wheels, cheap tyres. Pretty simple build, you can fix a lot yourself or have it serviced cheaply as there are few electronics.
Cons: Consumes more fuel than the manufacturer says, especially in the city. The automatic gearbox jerks and you have to release of the pedal or reach 3 000 revs to change gear. A deeper pothole and the car is already rattling something. Rusting horribly. Literally the whole underside is rusted out. The interior of the car is sweating fast. Can't close the tailgate in winter because the rubber freezes (at lower temperatures than other family cars now and ex). On the motorway it is difficult to overtake. Many spare parts have to be bought original, ordered, very expensive (sometimes it is cheaper to repair a 5 series BMW). Also some fluids, oils are less common, which also have to be paid for. At 100 km/h, high revs, as only 4 speed, have to drive slower to save fuel. In the interior, the plastics are warped and the joints do not hold together well. Quality is criminal.

Would NOT recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Economical car to go from A to B, belonging to the B segment we can deduce that it is good for finding parking in the city. The quality/price ratio for what you get is very good and it is worth highlighting the interior space despite being small. Currently I have a GETZ 2005 with 1.5 CRDi engine GLS finish with 286000 kms and I am very happy, just do the maintenance religiously, when it is cold I do not give him cane, I take good care of the engine. The best thing is that being a diesel engine and working at lower revs you can get a durable engine.
Cons: I keep looking for it, it is what it is, an economy car so I don't set the bar high.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: A good burst of speed, good boarding and alighting (height above 1.8m), a small size - easy to park, lowering rear seats can be very much space for load. The car for financial one.
